The Hunterdon Harmonizers Barbershop Chorus is an all male a cappella singing group located in Flemington, New Jersey. We are active in community and private events throughout Central New Jersey, and welcome men of all ages who share our love of music and service.

JOIN THE HARMONIZERS FOR MUSIC UNDER THE STARS ON JULY 12
The Harmonizers will be performing at Deer Path Park as part of the county's "Music Under the Stars" series. We hit the stage at 7pm, and hope the weather will support our program of old, new, broadway, and "interesting" presentations. Be there! It's great music with a great guest quartet (Untamed!), it's fun, and it's free. Bring a chair a snack and a smile.
Contest Recap
The Hunterdon Harmonizers just returned home from their weekend competition and convention in Reading, Pa. It is accurate to say that we were “clowning around” since we performed in circus-themed costumes, with clowns, acrobats, lion tamers, and even a strongman on stage. The audience loved it and we scored well with our two selections: “Make ‘em Laugh” and “Paper Moon.”
The convention drew barbershop singers from New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey, with over 250 men taking part in the performances. Also, the convention featured a fantastic Youth Adjudication, with 19 different a cappella high school, middle school, and elementary school ensembles amazing their “elders.” These kids are fantastic, and it is a source of pride that our society, through the Barbershop Harmony Foundation, supports their musical growth.
And then we saluted our veterans with a Special Celebration - and Memorial Day too!
The Harmonizers participated in the largest Veterans' Fundraiser in the history of Hunterdon County on May 19 at North Hunterdon Regional High School. One of the photos from this awesome event is on our banner, and others are elsewhere on the website. Veterans from Guadalcanal, Iwo, and Europe were there, and were honored to be part of this wonderful event, sponsored by the Rotary.
And then we had the honor to salute our country at the Flemington Memorial Day parade, singing "God Bless the USA," and "A Tribute to our Armed Forces" at the monument following the Memorial Day Parade on Main Street. We were able to sing a few songs at the reviewing stand before the parade too! THEN - off to Readington's Pickel Park, where about 12 of us sang for the Memorial crowd at their first Memorial Day community picnic.
#SingingChangesLives
Harmony Foundation International believes in the transformative power of singing. No matter if you think you can carry a tune or not, the simple act of raising your voice in song provides so many physical, social and emotional benefits to your life.
- Our mission is to connect people through charitable giving to enrich lives through singing. We fulfill our mission by partnering with singing organizations and funding their programs that encourage and enhance singing experiences for all ages ensuring everyone has access to the life-changing power of singing.
- Our donors financially enable programs that share, nurture and perpetuate the love of singing, in particular four-part a cappella-style harmony. As proud ambassadors for philanthropy, we link those who desire to be financial catalysts for inspiration directly to our impact partners providing programs that enrich lives through singing.
- We grant support for scholarships that provide singing and training opportunities to middle school through college age youth, as well as singing directors and singing educators. We also grant outreach programs to develop new audiences and participants and provide opportunities for lifelong singing to people of all ages.
- Our donors often declare that they know they will never be able to give back as much as singing barbershop has provided to their lives but they know that no matter the size of gift, the Foundation will be able to put it to good use. Thanks to our dedicated donors, last fiscal year alone, we were able to distribute nearly $1.5M in funding that is creating ripple effects of benefits into communities across the country.
